@@LemonWedgeinc I honestly think that in the original script the OG line had to be "You're mixing me up with your mother" because that's the. most on-point thing for Slappy to do w/ a Your Mom joke. O'course that was just a step too far for a show about a kid haunting the kids of the parents that killed him w/ a subplot of an affair going on.
@@spencerhollidayofficial Nope I remember Slappy and Mr.Wood cussing in the books they also are known to vomit slime on people as well. The books are way more dark one of them in the first book tried to choke the family dog to death and proceeded try to actually kill people.
This Slappy has the sort of personality where, if he were a human, he would probably wait til after a show to murder a heckler in a dark alleyway out the back of a theatre XD
I absolutely love his British voice 😍. Honestly every time I read an excerpt from the night of the living dummy books I picture him having a British accent. Lol.
“Try having it up your arse!” I love how this show tries to cater to older audiences than the source material, show or movie. I’ve always wanted to make Goosebumps adaptations that were PG-13 so I could get away with more darker, violent stuff than the original show and books without sacrificing its intended demographic, just like what the Scary Stories to Tell in The Dark movie did (with the exception being I Live in Your Basement). Speaking of the movie, it makes more sense for the characters to be teenagers in the show rather than in the movie because it fits with the darker more mature tone and content of the show, unlike the movie where it was teenagers for the sake of it which is an annoying Hollywood crutch that I hate.
Actually this happened in the first Night of The Living Dummy book, except it happened with Mr. Wood and not Slappy, and involved an audience of young kids.
@@nycot107Not exactly. Mr. Wood and Slappy both have a tendency to *ruin* shows their owners attempt to put on. They also destroy things and wreak havoc to put the blame on their owners as a form of control. This is actually a clever variant that lets Slappy still be a jerk onstage, but for his owner's *benefit*, which makes his manipulations both more effective AND more creepy. There's an underlying, sinister edge with this Slappy weaving a careful web of lies to gain Harold's trust and isolate him for his own purposes (exactly like manipulative abusers do), vs. book!Slappy relying on deception, and then force to get his way.
MEMORABLE SLAPPY QUOTES: Slappy '95: Don't you get it? I'm invincible! (and then blows the h*ll up) Slappy 2015: Who you callin' "dummy", dummy? Slappy 2023: 0:04
Tbh Slappy having a British accent is sorta a unique change of pace but I’m wondering if this is just like the start of the series and later on if it “succeeds” they’ll make a horror land series based on the horror land books where the book are meant to be all connected
The new voice of Slappy is Chris Pratt! Sorry I meant Chris Geere!😱🤣 Who’s British by the way, which explains why Slappy now has a British accent! When I first heard Slappy’s new voice in the many promotional clips, I was expecting it to be Mark Hamill or Robert Englund! It’s obvious Jack Black and Mick Wingert were not gonna voice Slappy in this show since it’s a reboot and shares no connections to the movies!🦇🦇🦇
@@garveyneal1672 He was Roger Clifford / Ditto in Pokémon: Detective Pikachu! This marks the second collaboration between Chris and Rob Letterman since that movie! Coincidentally, Chris also worked alongside Slappy’s movie voice actor Jack Black in Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight as Klaus!
@@TheGoosebumpsQueen Jake's cousin and his girlfriend Lexi bully Jake. When Chucky and Jake on stage, Chucky have Lexi's phone to expose her in front of crowd, including Jake's cousin and his parents
@@jailee479 I get what you're saying tho. Lexi DESERVED it! 🤣 I stopped watching the Chucky series. I HATED it! Was never a fan but wanted to try something new. 🤷
Slappy is one of my favorite ventriloquist dummy. I hope someone will make existing copy that made out of plastic from the original Slappy from Goosebumps Disney plus
I like this one because of the impact he has on the victims, instead of being just some creepy dummy with sinister plans, he has a strong mental impact on them that makes people feel that they need him more than anything else to accomplish anything. Being their "Best Friend".
@@iamjjanimates Yes, I agree, I have nothing against Slappy's usual chaotic evil, but I really loved this version of him and the way he manipulates people to do his bidding rather than forcing them to do so. I really love how Chris Geere played the character, he gave Slappy a sort of eerie charm that he never had before. :)
"If there were any justice in the world they'd let ME walk around and put HIM in a case" Kanduu over here pissed that he's still trapped in that dummy.
Im still a fan of the original slappy dummy more, which is kind of ironic since that dummy wasn’t even created to be slappy. Maybe it’s just childhood.
I like this version of Slappy because he's a lot creepier in appearance wise and it's how imagined him when reading the books as a kid. His voice also does it for me as well, don't get me wrong Jack Black did a good job voicing him, in the more funny/humor way. However I always pictured Slappy as this creepy old ventriloquist doll, with a very creepy look but a very persuading voice s
book slappy: horrifying creep movie slappy: tumbling moron voiced by a celebrity 1990s TV slappy: ginger gangster boss that doesn't actually know how to run crime business modern book slappy: creepy weirdo Reboot slappy: edgy Gen Z who swears and makes your mom jokes
Reboot Slappy seems to just adapt his insults depending on the era, tbh. He didn't swear or use "your Mom" jokes until Harold discovered him in the 1990s. 😂 Slappy used dated insults in the 1920s, like, "I agree. This man is a true mutton head. A simpleton. A ninny. An ignorant, flumdiddly coot."
Slappy from the movies was not a moron and he was only voiced by Jack Black in the first film. He was voiced by Mick Wingert in the second film, who did a much better job, imo.
